Has any one particular party made attempts to get them where they could vote.
On a federal level? Not that I know of. There are some states and local districts that allow undocumented immigrants to vote in state or local elections, though:
It's interesting that Bill Clinton is the one that pushed for the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996, which is what made it illegal for undocumented immigrants to vote in any federal election:
Can "undocumented Aliens be released from jail without bail and protected in sanctuary {Democrat} city?
Do you mean, do States and Municipalities have the right to write and enforce immigration laws and deny the Federal government the ability to overrule them?
That would be a solid yes.
And as a self proclaimed Conservative, one would think that you would be in favor of the State having this right. After all, the core belief behind Conservatism is a smaller Federal government with more power to the States...
You might enjoy this explanation of what a sanctuary city actually is:
#1: being undocumented is not a crime. It's a civil violation. Undocumented immigrants have rights under the U.S. Constitution. And according to due process, the police cannot detain anyone who hasn't at least been suspected of a crime. If a police officer encounters someone walking down the street who turns out to be undocumented, they cannot arrest that person because that person has not committed a crime (ICE, however, can). Similarly, if the police arrest someone undocumented � for example, someone suspected of committing a crime, who is then cleared, they must let that person go.
Important legal point #2: holding an immigrant past the point when they should be released, just so that ICE can pick them up, is unconstitutional.Multiplecourtshavesaidso, and immigrants can sue the police for unlawful holding.
Here we get back to the point of sanctuary cities: in a sanctuary city, the police will release an arrested immigrant after he's been cleared of charges, posted bail, or completed jail time for whatever he was arrested for. A non-sanctuary city will hold that person until ICE can come pick them up � even though that extra holding is not constitutional.
Are undocumented immigrants eligible for federal public benefit programs?
Generally no. Undocumented immigrants, including DACA holders, are ineligible to receive most federal public benefits, including means-tested benefits such as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, sometimes referred to as food stamps), regular Medicaid, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF). Undocumented immigrants are ineligible for health care subsidies under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and are prohibited from purchasing unsubsidized health coverage on ACA exchanges.
Undocumented immigrants may be eligible for a handful of benefits that are deemed necessary to protect life or guarantee safety in dire situations, such as emergency Medicaid, access to treatment in hospital emergency rooms, or access to healthcare and nutrition programs under the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC).
Can Foxy (or anyone) show where Biden or Gov. Cooper suggested offering any type of government assistance to illegal immigrants?
Take illegal rugrat with to you to SSA and get help. No problem. I took my dog down there, but was turned down. He couldn't speak Spanish and his tan wasn't dark enough. Screwed on both fronts.
"Biden's proposal would allow undocumented immigrants to buy health insurance, including the proposed public option, in the ACA marketplaces without federal subsidies," Gerald Kominski, a professor at the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research, wrote to the AP in an email. "That isn't free care."
